Abstract
Photo-assisted catalytic oxidation is a promising and sustainable method for the formaldehyde (HCHO) degradation. Catalyst loading and surface adsorbed oxygen species are common strategies to enhance the efficiency of photo-assisted catalytic oxidation. In this work, acid-treated zeolite-based natural zeolites (mordenite and stellerite) were used as supports, to obtain Co3O4-natural zeolite composites by impregnation and MOF-templated methods. Under the combined action of visible light irradiation and heat condition, the photo-assisted thermal catalytic performance of different composites was determined. Among these composites, the Co-AS (Co3O4-acid-treated stellerite) composite exhibited the best HCHO mineralization performance. The use of acid-treated stellerite as a catalyst carrier effectively reduced the crystallite size of Co3O4, improved its dispersibility, and increased the surface adsorbed oxygen species, contributing to enhanced catalytic efficiency. The in-situ DRIFTs results showed that the main intermediates of photo-assisted thermal catalysis degradation were dioxymethylene (DOM) and HCOO−. Additionally, the reusability performance of the composites was also investigated. Experimental results showed that the composite had good photo-assisted thermal catalytic performance and durability, making it a promising catalyst for indoor air purification.
期刊介绍:
Microporous and Mesoporous Materials covers novel and significant aspects of porous solids classified as either microporous (pore size up to 2 nm) or mesoporous (pore size 2 to 50 nm). The porosity should have a specific impact on the material properties or application. Typical examples are zeolites and zeolite-like materials, pillared materials, clathrasils and clathrates, carbon molecular sieves, ordered mesoporous materials, organic/inorganic porous hybrid materials, or porous metal oxides. Both natural and synthetic porous materials are within the scope of the journal.
Topics which are particularly of interest include:
All aspects of natural microporous and mesoporous solids
The synthesis of crystalline or amorphous porous materials
The physico-chemical characterization of microporous and mesoporous solids, especially spectroscopic and microscopic
The modification of microporous and mesoporous solids, for example by ion exchange or solid-state reactions
All topics related to diffusion of mobile species in the pores of microporous and mesoporous materials
Adsorption (and other separation techniques) using microporous or mesoporous adsorbents
Catalysis by microporous and mesoporous materials
